Word of Hope for Today by Bro. Rolly
Custodio
WHEN GOD CALLS YOU, YOU MUST STEP FORWARD
‘… Let us keep in step with the Spirit’ Galatians 5:25 NIV
Today’s Insight
You know ‘Singing in the Rain’, the musical with
the umbrella twirling, puddle splashing routine Gene Kelly bit? Effortless and
gliding with grace, you’d never guess Kelly was actually down with flu when he
filmed it. You’d never guess the rain was shrinking his costume. Despite these
odds, Gene Kelly danced into celluloid history because of the years of practice
he’d put in. He instinctively knew the steps.
It’s the same with our ‘routine’ with God. Every
day is an opportunity to practice going toe-to-toe with Him, learning His
guidance. Galatians
5:25 tells us to ‘keep
in step with the Spirit.’ Put in the practice now. Spiritual guidance is
learned – one step at a time. You might dream of making an impact in an
overseas mission trip; but it’s worth remembering that God can equally move you
to do ‘mission’ in your own town. In fact, He probably will. He has a big heart
for it, because it boils down to simply living in God’s ways, wherever you are
– nothing glamorous, just living for Him and for others.
So, how can we learn God’s ‘steps’? Well, the Bible
is ‘… a lamp to guide my feet and a light for my path’ (Psalm 119:105 NLT).
When we draw Godly inspiration from it, it’ll change our lives.
Application: Don’t wait for opportunities to find you. Read your
Bible and pray for God to give you an unmistakable passion for something He
cares for.

verses: Jer 1-3, Matt 23:15-28, Ps 55:1-11, Pro 8:17-18

Heavenly Father, Thank you for your Word today.

complain but being faithful in every assignment or ministry that you want me to
accomplish and to teach others too so that I may equip them for the work of
service and ready to train others also for your glory In Jesus’ Name. Amen!
